Description
The property presented here is a well-maintained semi-detached family home located in the popular residential area of De Heeg in Maastricht. This dwelling offers a living area of approximately 120 square meters spread across three floors, making it particularly suitable for families looking for a comfortable and practical living space in a green and well-connected neighborhood.
The ground floor welcomes residents through a spacious entrance hall that provides access to the staircase leading to the upper floors, the meter cupboard, and a separate toilet equipped with a small sink. From this central point, one enters the inviting living room, which flows seamlessly into the generous kitchen area. The kitchen has been renovated in 2017 and offers ample workspace and storage options. A notable feature of the kitchen is the direct access to the paved terrace with a canopy, creating an ideal spot for outdoor relaxation and dining during the warmer months. Additionally, the ground floor houses a particularly large storage room located on the left side of the property, providing valuable space for tools, bicycles, or garden equipment. At the front of the property, residents benefit from a private driveway, ensuring convenient parking right at their doorstep.
Moving to the first floor, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms. Two of these bedrooms are situated on the left side of the property and offer pleasant views of the carefully landscaped garden at the rear. The third bedroom is located at the front of the house on the right side. Adjacent to this front bedroom is the complete bathroom, which was also renovated in 2017. The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, a separate shower, a sink with a vanity unit, and a toilet. This configuration ensures that all daily bathroom needs are met within this single, functional space.
The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase and reveals the fourth full bedroom, which can alternatively serve as a hobby room or home office. This room features air conditioning, providing additional comfort during hot summer days. The second floor also offers substantial storage space, and this is where the central heating boiler is installed. The combi boiler is gas-fired and dates from 2017, meaning it is relatively modern and efficient. Importantly, the boiler is owned by the current proprietors, so it will transfer to the new owner as part of the sale.
The exterior of the property is equally noteworthy. The southeast-facing rear garden measures 84 square meters and extends to a depth of 12 meters with a width of 7 meters. This orientation ensures that the garden receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day, particularly in the morning and early afternoon. The garden has been attractively landscaped and features a paved terrace area with an overhanging canopy, perfect for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying a quiet moment. The entire property is fitted with shutters, which can be closed for privacy, security, or to keep the interior cool during warm weather.
Regarding energy efficiency, the property holds an energy label C. The insulation measures include roof insulation, double glazing, high-efficiency glass, and wall insulation. While not the highest possible rating, these features indicate that reasonable steps have been taken to reduce energy consumption and improve thermal comfort.
The De Heeg neighborhood is widely regarded as one of the more desirable residential areas in Maastricht, particularly among young families. The area is characterized by its spacious layout and abundant green spaces, creating a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. Daily amenities are readily available, with the shopping center De Roserije and an Albert Heijn supermarket within easy reach. Public transport connections are good, and several schools can be found in the immediate vicinity. For those who commute by car, the neighborhood offers excellent access to major highways leading to Eindhoven, Heerlen, and across the border to Belgium. Despite these convenient connections, the property itself is situated on a quiet road, ensuring that residents can enjoy a peaceful living environment.
The property is being offered by KH-Solutions Makelaars at an asking price of 395,000 euros, which translates to approximately 3,292 euros per square meter of living space. The purchase will be subject to the standard terms and conditions applicable in the Netherlands. A written purchase agreement must be signed by both buyer and seller before the transaction is considered legally binding. The typical period for any agreed-upon suspensive conditions, such as obtaining mortgage financing, is four to six weeks after the verbal agreement. A deposit or bank guarantee of ten percent of the purchase price is required to be deposited with the notary one week after the expiry of any suspensive conditions. Prospective buyers are encouraged to arrange their own structural inspection or consult with other advisors to gain a thorough understanding of the property's condition before committing to the purchase.
This semi-detached home presents itself as a move-in ready property that has been well cared for by its current owners. The combination of four proper bedrooms, updated kitchen and bathroom facilities, a private driveway, and a pleasant garden makes it a practical choice for families. The location in De Heeg adds further appeal, with its balance of residential tranquility and convenient access to urban amenities and transport links. The presence of shutters on all windows and air conditioning on the top floor demonstrates attention to comfort details that potential buyers will likely appreciate.
The plot size of 162 square meters is typical for this type of property in this neighborhood and provides enough outdoor space for gardening, children's play, or outdoor relaxation without requiring excessive maintenance. The attached stone storage building with electrical connections offers secure and dry storage space that complements the internal storage options on the second floor.
In summary, this property at De Heeg in Maastricht represents a solid family home in a sought-after location. The updates carried out in 2017 to both the kitchen and bathroom, along with the presence of a modern heating system, address some of the most significant expenses that buyers often face when purchasing older properties. The practical layout across three floors provides flexibility in how the space is used, while the external features including the private driveway and southeast-facing garden enhance the overall livability of the home.
